In 2019, my husband and I visited several of the national parks in the northwestern part of the country. While all of them were stunning in their own way, Crater Lake elevated nature’s beauty to a whole different level. It was impossible to take a bad photograph from anywhere we hiked around the entire lake.
Sincerely,
Crater Lake National Park
Crater Lake sits in a rugged portion of the Cascade Range and is famous for its deep, jewel-blue water. An impressive 20-mile ring of cliffs encloses the basin and adds to its magnificence.
State(s): Oregon
Established: 1902
